Haha! I remember that issue of the wmnl. I remember thinking how amusing and benign it was, since it was so obvious that it was photoshopped. It just seemed as another anecdote of Samuel Lee. Whenever he said and did such bizarre things, it made his ego and arrogance seem so harmless.

At these memorial services, members probably reflect back on all such anecdotes of him - with fondness. His whole legacy of abuse is minimized by his bizarreness and quirky behavior. "God's servants are only human, after all. They make mistakes too."
